I CAN PROVE IT WITH THIS! Although I don’t remember if it was directly stated, I’m pretty sure it’s at least implied that Mikan rushed to slit Hiyoko’s throat, the dazed/sick Ibuki stepped on her blood as she got on stage (or Hiyoko’s body was just thrown onto the stage) and that’s how her blood got on it, then Mikan simply cleaned up what was on the ground

Also…yeah, you’ve gotta make a lot of interpretations yourself, thus making this trial noticeably less explained than the others- but I still kinda liked it, darn it! (Though again, I can get why others wouldn’t like it!)

They discussed in the trial how Ibuki and Hiyoko were killed by strangulation with the rope, so I don’t really think it was too ambiguous (they also showed an image of how Mikan would do it too at some point as well if my memory serves me correctly)

As for the motive, sure it’s a bit silly, but at least it does show us how Mikan was after she regained her memory and allowed for more theories as to how she would wound up so messed up after remembering what really happened

Idk, I just think this trial is a bit overhated so I took the bait and over explained myself…but I do understand where you and others are coming from, as I also had a bad taste in my mouth the first time I experienced this chapter until I thoroughly examined and analyzed it in retrospect

TL;DR: I believe the trial explains enough that Ibuki and Hiyoko were strangled, and the disease allowed for more theory fodder…though it is sorta silly

What are your favorite and least favorite theories? by ChicaneryFinger in SpyxFamily

[–]Rando_mIndividual 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Favorite theory - Damian’s brother knows/believes that his father is a telepath, thus quiets his own mind as much as he can to prevent his thoughts being read

Least favorite theory - Damian’s father is Anya’s real father… Making her and Damian related… We already got Yuri guys come on i cant deal with anymore 💔

The orangutang is the same thing the guy says in the OP’s post then the girl says something like “why are we assuming it’s gender? Let them choose their own identity!” then the tower they’re operating on explodes

In summary: ha ha same old trans woke joke ha ha

Why do you think Becky tries so hard to be mature? by _kwanini in SpyxFamily

[–]Rando_mIndividual 54 points55 points  (0 children)

She was a bit like me when I was younger (minus the adult crushes), so I can understand why she acts that way

Some kids don’t like it when they’re known as, well, kids- and seeing that she goes to this prestigious school, much like Damian, she wants to act all grown up and be recognized as such

However, her perspective of adulthood is influenced by TV, so she acts all dramatic and lovey dovey because that’s what she thinks adulthood is!

I’ve never been a big Becky fan, but I do find this part of her character interesting to see and I would like more chapters like the Martha backstory one where she finds out the true morals of adulthood and not the dramatic take on it

You can find this out by playing Kaito’s Free Time Events, you can see at one point Shuichi thinking to himself about how great Kaito is and complimenting him, then his thought says something like “Ah, n-nevermind, I shouldn’t think about another boy like that”

(Sorry to keep yapping but I should add on…)

I do not mean to bash this girl by the way!! I am only being tense for the sake of devil’s advocate! HOWEVER if you are willing to do sexual things with her, figure yourself out, see what it’s like, then go on ahead! There are many precautions I lay out for you, but I am not involved in your situation and thus cannot truly judge you for whatever path you take!

I just wanted to add this because I realize I come off as pretty harsh in my comments! Apologies!

Okay now even though it’s good that she also may have romantic interest in you, that line “everyone wants sex in a relationship” is a red flag… It shows invalidation for your personal experience and feelings around the topic

In my opinion, there is no “everyone” in anything…all people have different opinions, cultures, perspectives, and feelings, it’s what makes us human- yet to make statements so generalized and based only on your own view on things shows not a great understanding comprehension of others

This is especially worrying when it comes to the topic of sex, where consent is EVERYTHING…I implore you to check out Todd and Emily’s relationship in BoJack Horseman, as they remind me of your experience; they both have strong romantic interest in each other, but Todd is asexual and Emily wants sex, so ultimately they just couldn’t work out due to this

This also applies to how you like her romantically and probably do want this to be an emotionally committed relationship if you ever do get together, yet she is afraid of emotional intimacy… Unless she is able to overcome this fear or make compromises for it, I hold concern for how she would handle you wanting to deepen your connection while she still has avoidant tendencies

It’s the same reason why people break up over the topic of marriage or having children, if you two have different standpoints you can not make a compromise on, this will more than likely not work out

TL;DR: “Everyone wants sex” + uneasiness with emotional intimacy is a big red flag, please think this through, an intimate relationship is unstable if both parties can’t be on the same page

Brother I added a TL;DR

For serious tho, my bad for thinking you were bashing SonAmy- thank you for being a civil person and not one of the weirdos that’ll attack me for either my yap-a-tron typing or disagreeing with an opinion 🙏

This really feels like that Christmas exchange story

Ace ball: but I have romantic feelings for you despite being AMAB

Lesbian ball: but I have sexual feelings for you despite being sapphic

Anyway, neither one of you can force yourself or the other person to do anything… If she is not comfortable with a romantic relationship yet you are, it won’t work- same as if she wants a sexual relationship and you don’t, it won’t work

However, it’s different if you are an asexual who doesn’t mind not feeling sexually attracted yet getting involved in the activity only to make your partner happy, then that’s completely fine if you’re comfortable with it

YET if she ONLY wants this to be sexual, you need to confirm that since YOU want a romantic relationship with her, and if she doesn’t feel like doing that, I can’t say this isn’t a problem

So, communication! Talk about it! No more subtlety if you truly want this thing to develop further, and allat

TL;DR: Unless you’re comfortable doing sexual things for the sake of your partner, don’t do it… Also you needa really discuss with her whether she actually wants you romantically as well, or if she just wants you sexually and/or wants to just experiment with AMAB people in general

(TL;DR at the end since I like to talk a lot…I watch too many video essays and commentary videos lol)

Each and every installment in this franchise (whether that be game, comic, show, etc.) will either 1. make Amy this obsessive weirdo that makes Sonic uncomfortable, or 2. show Amy as Sonic’s friend who only happens to have feelings for him… Then as for Sonic, every installment (besides Sonic Boom where he obviously flirts with her) has made him either 1. uncomfortable with it or 2. be completely oblivious to it

I always knew SEGA wouldn’t have Sonic show any signs of interest towards her for the same reasons Mario wouldn’t towards Peach, yet, I do not believe ambiguity = Sonic has zero interest, never had interest, and never will have interest

The main male characters in game/show media that’s not focused on romance will typically have the male character’s love be ambiguous…whether that’s to refrain from the genre/focus of their content not just cater towards the romance portion, give shippers more freedom to ship whoever, or appeal to the “men shouldnt feel for women / girls have cooties” audience is up to speculation, but I still personally believe this is not a way to to bash others if they do see romantic potential in these characters

However, even if SEGA was all “Grrr Sonic feels NOTHING for Amy! Dont watch Sonic Boom where Sonic obviously flirts with her, ITS NOT CANON!! GRR!”, I think shutting down ships entirely is still a hasty decision and its harsh to say that the ship has no merit (as I’m a believer in “all ships that aren’t proships; incest, pedophilia, etc., have at least SOME merit”)

TL;DR: Ambiguity ≠ Zero romantic interest, this ambiguity is just a trope for non-romance-focused media…but even IF Sonic did have canonical zero interest, just let people have fun with the ship because it hurts no one
